Ohayo Minnaaaa!! Genki? ~ Hi everyone!! Are you doing well? <3
Big news! C.C.O. is happy to inaugurate a brand new event: our official #1st Graphic Contest! The deadline to join is Dec 16th. Every entry after that cannot be counted.
We are starting off with something simple, a DP contest! You can read here more details if you are interested!
Obviously we won't let you work for free, as in fact, like every other respectable contest out there, there are in program nice prizes for the winners! (Still refer to the above link for more infos!)
The contest is welcoming anyone who'd like to give it a try! Both staffers and members can join it of course!
We hope you'll like this idea and to see many of you joining it!
On a side note, all the most frequent topics are opened to november claims (since a few time now), which also include the recently finally re-opened quote topic!
Still, for what regards the bbcode we are patiently waiting for it to be fully back, in order for us to be able to re-open certain topics (like Category).
Hearing from the latest news about it, looks like it's just a matter of time. They are working on it, and they are possibly on the last fase of setting everything for good and have it back! Let's cross fingers! (Big thanks to our -oresama- who told me about this news!)
What else? Oh right. This is nothing "new" but yeah, we are always searching for volounteers that want to become part of our staff! Here more infos about the positions we are looking for!
That's... all, i believe. December is close, so make sure to have used (& fixed if it was asked) your claims for November and to not let anything behind!
Winter is coming.. *GoT cit* ..But i hope to see you in the contest!
We'll keep you posted with the next news~
Have a great day!

Hi Hi! It's been a while since our last newsletter, we apologize for that.
Although we mostly have to attribute this to the recent problems MAL has experienced with the broken/unabled bbcode, that consequently did lead the club to a temporary hiatus, as sadly all of our activities have been forced to stop because we couldn't update at all in order to not screw the lists and the codes.
The good news is that, thankfully, the bbcode now is "half" back, meaning that "url=" and "color=" codes do work again.
Translated: we can finally reopen many of the usual topics we have.
We exceptionally decided to recover the wasted time and to open the most frequent topics to both September and October's claims, and we currently already did open the Main Topic and the Couple Topic's claims.
Shortly we'll also open Voices and hopefully Quotes topics too.
To claim for both months we only just ask you to make a single post for each month's claims and to color your claims depending on the month, as it's better explained in the opening post.
The bad news is that, since the bbcode is only half back, the "img" code is not among the actually working codes, which means that we still can't open topics like the Category one, but we hope and look forward to the bbcode being fully back soon.
Another thing, that we'd like to remember to all of you, is that:
the club is still (urgently) searching for banner makers, so if you'd like to apply and give it a try, you can post here!
We highly encourauge you to! We really need help, and obviously, don't forget that being part of the staff means having bonuses (which are the extra claims, the right to reserve claims for the incoming months and the chance to receive previews regarding categories or surprise topics!)
That's pretty much all for now..
We'll keep you posted with the next news~
Have a good day!
